What They're Saying
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers (via Liverpool Echo): "Simon [Mignolet's] shown the benefits of having a bit of time out of the side. He looks like a different goalkeeper. It's difficult when you are playing all the time, as you don't get the chance to reflect on your performance. Simon's spell out was for him to take a step back, analyze performances and the areas where he could improve. Since he's come back into the team, he's shown why we brought him here."
West Ham manager Sam Allardyce (via the Express): "I would hope Andy [Carroll] wouldn't try too hard because it can easily put you off your game."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Carroll returns to his old stomping grounds a more productive striker. In 12 league appearances, the 26-year-old has five goals and an assist.
Liverpool's Projected Lineup (3-4-2-1): Mignolet; Sakho, Skrtel, Can; Moreno, Leiva, Henderson, Markovic; Coutinho, Lallana; Sterling
West Ham's Projected Lineup (4-4-2 Diamond): Adrian; Cresswell, Reid, Tomkins, Jenkinson; Nolan, Song, Noble, Downing; Sakho, Carroll
